The study was based on 34 Gidran, Lipizzaner, Semigreu Românesc and Pure Arabian stallions from Public Mount Unity of Tulucești studfarm, Galați county, Romania. These horses were reared in troops where they have been used or assessed as public mount stallions after promoting the specific ranking activity. They were appreciated regarding the usual measurements used on horses (height, thorax perimeter and cannon girth) at current criteria evaluation, where they obtained very satisfying marks. The results show that the stallions can be included, based on body measurements, in Elite class, which proves that they should continue to reproduce in Tulucești National studfarm; thus a high biological material will be obtained, which indicates that the main purpose of studfarm will be achieved.
